Detroit Legal News

Does anyone use their online legal notices to find foreclosures? I see in other posts that sites such as realtytrac can tend to have stale listings; are the legal notices here more timely?

    OK, that being understood, I was wondering more about helping the homeowner avoid foreclosure and keep their house even in the pre-foreclosure stage then, recieving a commission for it.
    If that makes any sense.
    Thanks for any help.

    Dave,

    If the program is what I think it is, the tuition sounds a little steep. Based on what little I know from your posts, it sounds like you will be learning how to negotiate forebearance agreements. If that is all they are teaching, it is a very simple thing to do. In fact, I worked with another investor who was facing foreclosure, and I talked her through it in a matter of minutes over the phone. She did what I suggested, and was successful.

    I could be wrong, but it sounds like you are looking for an entry into real estate investing. Before you spend a boat load of money on anything, I suggest you start attending meetings of your local Real Estate Investing Association. The closest one to you that I know is the DC Central Maryland Real Estate Investing Group. They meet the second Saturday of the month at 10am at the Bowie Library located on RT 450 just north of RT 197. Basic membership is free. In fact, you can sign up for membership on this website under Groups. The website address for DCCMREIG is http://www.dccmreig.com.

    I hope this helps.
